Imitation of Life - Live From Drivetime On BBC Radio 2 / 2003

[Verse 1]

Charades, pop skill

Water hyacinth

Named by a poet

Imitation of life

[Bridge]

Like koi in a frozen pond

Like a goldfish in a bowl

I don't want to hear you cry

[Chorus]

That sugarcane, that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come on

No one can see you try

[Verse 2]

You want the greatest thing

The greatest thing since bread came sliced

You've got it all

You've got it sized

[Bridge]

Like a Friday fashion show teenager

Freezing in the corner

Trying to look like you don't try

[Chorus]

That sugarcane, that tasted good

That's cinnamon, that's Hollywood

Come on, come on

No one can see you try

No one can see you cry

No one can see you cry

No one can see you cry

That sugarcane, that tasted good

That's freezing rain, that's what you could

Comе on, come on

No one can see you cry

This sugarcane, this lеmonade

This hurricane, I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

This lightning storm, this tidal wave

This avalanche, I'm not afraid

Come on, come on

No one can see me cry

That sugarcane, that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry

That sugarcane, that tasted good

That's who you are, that's what you could

Come on, come on

No one can see you cry
